Medical Medical information is summarized at the lower left corner of the Chart module. To edit, double click on the pink area at the lower left (unless you've changed the color).
See the Problems, Allergies, or Medications for information on those sections. The section at the lower left is meant to be a summary which will show in the Chart module. The "Med Urgent" Note also shows in red is some other places in the program, like on the main Appointments module screen and on individual appointments if the Views have been set up for that. The service notes can be used however you wish. It is for patient trivia that is gleaned from discussions in the operatory and may include hobbies, employment, whether they need a blanket or pillow, nervous behavior, whether they are on a strict budget, whether they have to drive a long way to get to the office, etc. The right section is designed to maintain a complete current medical history. The assistants should type in all items that the patient marks on whatever medical history form you have them fill out. Once the data is entered into the computer, the dentist can refer to it more easily than the handwritten patient version. There is still no archiving or update mechanism, so all changes should also be entered as chart notes and this section should always reflect the current medical status.
